Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Cribbo at 100% against Calendar Widget's 5%. Cribbo also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.4). Calendar Widget's advantage is ratings volume (194 vs 2) and monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs paid). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
